Nor Cal Trip ( Completed )
Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 11:15 pm
I had always wanted to hit some of the parks in Northern California for a number of years but it seemed always something was always getting in the way of it. I was searching for Hotwire and found a great price on a package to San Jose, Ca. I would be leaving late friday night and catching the Red Eye out that sunday. It was going to be a streach to get four parks into not even two days and said what the heck. So I booked it and waited.
Now when you end up leaving 75 minutes late and you have a mere 55 minutes layover in Phoenix then great chance i was not making the last flight out of the night and got to spend the night on US Air's Dime at the Sheraton in Tempe that included a meal to go with it and an early morning flight out saturday and into San Jose around 9am to get a late start on the day.
Enough backstory crap for it is time to show why i think Gilroy Gardens is infact the park with the best landscaping today! So on with some pics Baby!
Walking across bridge to park
The Landscaping is well awsome
The Garlic Twist
The Boat Ride
All types of flowers, plants, and trees all over the park.
One of the many ponds in the park
Along with the Many waterfalls
Quick Silver Entrance
Hard to get pics of it
Peaceful watching the water
Waterfalls all over the park
Behind Gilroy Falls
Even have a train to go around the park
The Timber Twister Coaster
Typical Roller Skater layout
Merry Go Round
You can view the rest of the pics Gilroy Gardens
Next Stop Six Flags Discovery Cove
